All of the injured protesters were treated at the scene of the clashes.
Meantime, several Palestinian civilians suffocated from teargas inhalation as Israeli occupation forces attacked similar protests in the villages of Qaryut and Beit Dajan, in the occupied West Bank province of Nablus.
Also in Beit Dajan, a Palestinian paramedic was hit by an Israeli teargas canister in his face, and was moved to hospital for treatment, said the Palestinian Red Crescent (PRC).
For many years, villagers from Kafr Qaddum and neighboring villages have been protesting every Friday against illegal Israeli settlement construction.
More than 600,000 Israelis live in Jewish-only settlements across the occupied Palestinian Territories in violation of international law.
